When we got to choose our last duty station, we knew that we wanted to come here. Z and I got married here 5 years ago and absolutely fell in love with it. But now that we live here we’ve discovered so many more places we love and so many things we love to do downtown every weekend. It’s become our family’s routine and I’m truly going to miss it when we move. Sad face.

One of our favorite things to do is spend our weekend mornings downtown. There’s a farmer’s market every Saturday so we usually browse the vendors and then break for a little picnic before heading down to the Riverwalk. Now that it’s getting hotter I’ve had to make sure we’ve had plenty of fluids with us. And since we’re in the south, Sweet Tea is obviously one of our must haves!

I picked up some Milo’s Café Style Sweet Tea at Walmart on our way downtown last time and it’s delicious! So refreshing after walking around all morning in the heat. The all new Café Style tea is in the refrigerated juice and dairy section due to the tea being all natural. Plus it’s super affordable and organic; no preservatives, no additives, and no acids. Now you just have to decide which flavor you want; choose from Sweet, Light Sweet, Green Citrus, Light Green Citrus!

It’s important that we take these little moments and turn them into memories. I know our time here is limited and we want to make the most of it. I hope it’s these little things that my kids remember. It may just be a picnic to them but to me it’s so much more. It’s quality time doing things I love with the people I love. And that’s what life is all about 🙂
